Untimed downs allow a replay when time expired on the play so that you can enforce a penalty. (How can it be a repeat of a second down when there is not time to repeat?)
Youre not going to extend the period here to get another play in

That's not true Kelvin, at least not under NFHS rules.
NF 3-3-3
A period must be extended by an untimed down if during the last timed down, one of the following occurs:
a. There was a foul, other than unsportsmanlike or non-player, by either team and the penalty is accepted.
It doesn't say time has to expire during the down. It says if there is a penalty during the last down of the period. In this case, there certainly was. Play the untimed down.
